convert to electronic distribution??

I have been tinkering with my truck lately... (suprise suprise) And have noticed that it has a... a... a... distributor cap! Boy was I suprised! I am wanting to know if there is a way to easily convert to an electronic spark system. I don't think it should be too hard, just have to find compatible parts. Matt, any ideas?

BTW, has anyone seen the intake on a VG33 Frontier? That thing is so inefficient it isn't funny. Way to much to modify to do something like a home depot mod. The thing has 2 large silencer chambers, a small one, and more bends than the back roads of Austin. I am going to have to save up for an "official" intake. (Frank, does stillen have any for an '02 Frontier?)

Rob, leave the ignition alone. Nissan is still using a distributor on it for a reason.

Cost? What if any downfall would there be to converting to electronic ignition? Is there such thing as high performance distributor ignitions?
